PREPARATIONS, BUSY WORK, WHAT HAVE YOU -

There were a couple of different ways to hear about it: maybe you read about the event in dire need of help somewhere in the paper, maybe you heard whispers about it through word of mouth, maybe you encountered Anya herself fretting over not having enough hands and bodies to be able to support the event. Either way, it seems like the Holiday Live has been rather... short-staffed.

Yet even with that, it's hard to believe when you arrive at the stage that's being built or at the studio where the main preparations are being put together. There are plenty of bodies milling about and they're going to put you to work. Could you carry these boxes of mistletoe? Careful, there might be some of the bat variety floating around too. Know anything about sewing? Well you better learn and get to work on these costumes! Everyone needs help - lighting, decorating, painting the set, not to mention the fact that there are some people who desperately need you to be on stage. Haha, what? Did you sign up for that? Well good luck saying no!

ii. five, six, seven, eight...!
DANCING, SINGING, YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS -

Every great show requires some preparation beforehand, doesn't it? No one sees all the effort that goes into it, but it's not like anyone wakes up one day and suddenly has the dance skills of a god, right? .... or maybe you do, thanks to Retrospec! Either way, dance rooms have been booked at the Dancinerate Studio for practice for all sorts of sets and practice rooms at the University Music Department have been borrowed for the same purpose. It's okay, we all have some trouble with nailing those difficult steps and high notes. Here's the time to iron out all those little wrinkles.

Maybe it's even dress rehearsal and you're all in costume, been set up with your mic, and you're ready to go show them what you've got! How does it go? Well? Are you a born nature? Or is it a little rough? Trip over some wires? Blinded by the lights? At least that's... uh, what rehearsal's for...?

iii. the show must go on...!
CONCERT NIGHT IS HERE -

The night of December 22nd comes swiftly indeed. It's the real deal. Welcome to the Holiday Live! The stage somehow managed to come together in time, beautiful snowy landscape sets painted alongside a makeshift ice castle. The tech crew and stagehands are both hard at work to make those transitions seamless, picture perfect after hours of rehearsal. Everything is ready to set you - yes, you - up for success, regardless of how you're participating in the live tonight. Go out there and break a leg!

For anyone who finds themselves in the audience tonight, don't forget to drop some extra cash on that merchandise. There are endless pen lights available being sold and while there are some official ones for the celebrities present, there are also more customized pen lights, banners, and signs that were made at the hands of Anya to thank everyone who volunteered to join in. Please help yourself to showing support to everyone who came through tonight!

Right by the merch booth, there also appears to be a little prop mailbox present. Write a letter to Santa's Helpers it prompts. Why not indulge in a little bit of fanmail?

[ OOC: Hello, hello! Welcome to the log set up for winter idol shenanigans, also known as Blue Star Live set ICly on December 22nd. Please take these prompts strictly as set-ups for ideas and locations, not anything binding at all. Let your heart go crazy! Even if you didn't make OOC plans to participate, feel free to drop in and use this as a mingle that lasts through the whole month. The more, the merrier! And what a merry time of year, right?

If you have any questions at all, feel free to contact me by PMing this journal or my plurk at evergrace. Thanks! ]

[Sharing the stage together? She wants to share the stage with him>? How can everything sounds so sincere when she says it? He originally came to the stage with the idea to just help with the background and nothing else. Now he's going to be a background dancer and he doesn't mind! He does think he can have fun with everyone!

He doesn't think he'll shine as brightly as Anya though he will try his best!]

Oh! I've been over there before I know where to go. Will they let us use it?

[constellates]

[Anya nods at that - ]

If we ask nicely. [wILL THAT REALLY BE ALL THAT IT TAKES] Anya's producer is very good at asking for things!

[ah yes

that yato]

[amodelidol]

[Makoto didn't know it was so easy. Then again after getting lost over there a few times, he's embarrassed to go back over there now. But if Anya says they can do it then he's going to trust her! He's going to trust her manager too. He doesn't know her manager, but if Anya thinks he's good then he has to be!]

Okay! When we can use the room let me know and I'll be there to practice! Oh, wait, we have to wear outfits too right? Anything else we need to do?

[constellates]

For outfits, fitting is important.

[so that they can look their very best. Anya still can't help but look a bit touched though - considering how he didn't want to perform earlier....]

... and make sure you have fun too, please?
